Why sanctions, entity lists, pressuring allies to retard China's progress are guaranteed to fail

Yup this tells it best You can't sanction what is on someone else head
China is now a scientific superpower, and now leads the United States and the European Union in several key measures of scholarship and research output. Much of China's top research and scientific talent are also headed back to China, and bringing with them deep, specialized industry knowledge in dozens of fields.Western export curbs on critical technologies and tools for semiconductor manufacturing have ironically chased much top Chinese talent away from Silicon Valley and Europe, back to China. By closing off customers for their products, they concluded they are better off, instead, returning to China and doing business here, with Chinese partners and Chinese customers.

The problem with the chip is actually the intellectual property.

Copying it is very easy.

But to reserve engineering it is hard, to find another way but achieving the same result or even better.

It's better for China to invest hugely in photonic chip as traditional chip is already almost reach its end.
